Description

Daughter. Wife. Queen. Rebel.

When Persephone, queen of the Underworld and ruler of the dead, finds her mother Demeter amid the ruins of a forest, she knows the goddess's mind is broken.

With the world withering and mortals dying by the thousands with every turn of the sun, Persephone has little time to stop the rapid decay of nature before doom befalls the world of gods and men.

But rescuing her mother from insanity proves both difficult and dangerous, and demands a painful remembering of Persephone's past—filled with beauty and bitterness, rage and thwarted love.

And the powerful Olympians do not stay idle. They threaten and scheme, pushing Persephone to fulfil her destiny in a way that would force her to write history with her family's blood.

Will Persephone save her mother and thus stop the collapse of the world, or will she be forced to pay her due by committing the ultimate crime?
